Had to comment out the netnmrc line in the inittab file. Then rebooted
and installed fix. Some OV processes were running on on startup that
could not be seen or stopped. Thanks all.

George's procedure will lead you to the correct technical answer, but
there
might be a simpler way to resolve this.
It sounds like /usr/OV/bin/DisplayCpyrght is running. Do a "ps -ef |
grep
Display" to find it, and then "kill -9 PID" to get rid of it. If you
don't
find one, then you'd need the lsof procedure George described to
determine
what the process is. After that, you should run the backout and then
try
to reinstall.
But an even simpler method is to simply reboot, then run the backout,
and
then reinstall...
The reboot should kill those processes, whatever they are.

Some process is using the copyright file, and it may not be all that
obvious.
After installation of 7.1.4 you can be left with a couple of processes
named xnmappmon. If you haven't closed their windows yet. close them.
If
you just minimized them that could be it.
Do you have lsof installed? If so, do two things. If not, get it for
your
level of the os. Google it, you'll find it. or go here:
http://aixpdslib.seas.ucla.edu/packages/lsof.html
Run lsof and you will see all the inodes of open files way over on the
right.
use this command to get the inode number of the copyright file: ls -i
/usr/OV/bin/DisplayCpyrght
match the two up and you know your process on the left side of the lsof
report.
Any further research needed to solve this you should open a PMR with
support

Geo.

Please respond to [nv-l] 7.1.4 Fp04
nv-l@lists.us.ibm.com install problem
Running Netview 7.1.4 on AIX 5.1. Just upgraded to 7.1.4. When I try to
apply FP04 I get the error:
nccrs1 root /usr/ # ./install
14:10:00 Performing Prerequisite Checking.
14:10:00 Performing File Extraction.
14:11:30 Performing Space Checks.
14:11:38 Performing File Backup.
14:13:29 Shutting down NetView daemons.
14:14:02 Performing File Replacement.
cp: /usr/OV/bin/DisplayCpyrght: Cannot open or remove a file containing
a running program.
14:14:03 Installation of /usr/OV/bin/DisplayCpyrght failed.
14:14:03 Installation aborted - the state of the NetView installation is
unknown.
14:14:03 Use /usr/OV/service/V714/FixPack4/backout to restore this
system.
After the backout, tried to copy file manually, same copy error. Any
Ideas?
